Elite Dangerous is the definitive massively multiplayer space epic, bringing gaming's original open world adventure to the modern generation with a connected galaxy, evolving narrative, and the entirety of the Milky Way re-created at its full galactic proportions.
Starting with only a small starship and a few credits, players do whatever it takes to earn the skill, knowledge, wealth, and power to survive in a futuristic cutthroat galaxy and to stand among the ranks of the iconic Elite. In an age of galactic superpowers and interstellar war, every player's story influences the unique connected gaming experience and handcrafted evolving narrative. Governments fall, battles are lost and won, and humanity's frontier is reshaped, all by players' actions.
My thousands of hours of Elite can vouch that this is still THE best space sim out there. You can try NMS, X, Star Citizen, Everspace but there’s nothing that can quite touch it.
If you do get it, remember a few things: it doesn’t have a learning curve, it has a learning cliff. You’ll learn a lot in the first hours. Also, join a community. There’s reddit, or the various discords, or join a squad on inara.cz or even directly in-game. But the community surrounding this game is one of the nicest and most supportive i’ve ever seen. Oh, and if you’re into salt and drama, there’s the Frontier elite forums. Fly safe
